I have a fresh install of Kali Linux 2016.2 64-bit and when I run the Package Updater I get the same error.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
w3af-console: Depends: python-darts.lib.utils.lru (>= 0.5-4) but it is not going to be installed

I have attempted to run the sudo apt-get update command and it runs without issue. Although, I still get the above error message when attempting to update.

Hi zone,

With Kali (and any other distro of *nix), I would highly recommend you use the terminal for package management. I've never used the package manager myself so I'm afraid I can't comment on that aspect. Try this, open up a terminal and type

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y.

Post any error's you get and it should be a little easier to help out.

I was able to the the command:

apt-get upgrade -y

After running the above command, everything updated correctly for me.

Thank you for the assistance!
